(Truthfully I didn't know there was a difference between principals and teachings but...) Maybe all of us have had problems with the same ones as you. >I use the Old Testament because I haven't read much of >the New Testament so I cannot say anything either way. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~So is that an admittance to not really being in a position to judge it?
